Another Rainy Morning

Woke up being greeted by the heavy downpour. The weather has been quite good for the past 2 days. Guess it's time to pour again.. Was late for work due to the rain as i had to wait for my dad to pick my up. It's too heavy to go out and take a bus. I'll be all drenched even with an umbrella. I've a Christmas party to attend today. It's held in Elf's house. Upper east coast.. I'll be driving but uru will be directing me from tenah merah coz i've no idea where is it. Hope i can park my car. I'm sure i'll have to parallel park so hopefully there's no car ard and i can juz drive straight in. Parking my car has always been my worry. I'll try to take some pics tonight!

Merry Christmas!

It's Christmas eve =) though I do not usually have a big celebration, I loveee Christmas. The mood and atmosphere is always so nice. For Christmas day, we'll always have a big family gathering with my grand parents, aunties, uncles and cousins. The whole family would be there. We'll have gifts of course, under the Christmas tree and a wide spread of yummy food. However for Christmas eve today, my family and I are not heading to church. My dad contracted shingles (some patchy rashes like thingy that have water bubbles and hurts alot). Hope he gets well soon. He've been staying at home these 2 days and i've been the driver! Yes.. i finally drove the car alone! *beams* parking still sux but at least i can park. Just quite embarrassed whenever i park my car. Last thing I've to say... The show "The L Word" is nice!!! It totally unleashed the lesbian tendencies in me once again LOL. Shane is soooo cute!!! I swear.. so much cuter than the guys i know. i would

Serious Addiction

I've a problem.. a real serious problem. I always type date instead of dad whenever I'm telling ppl things lk "my dad drove, my dad's picking me up" Swear it's not the first time i'm saying it! and Sharon yu had to post the conversation on her blog. Just like what i told her, maybe subconciously i'm desparate for a date! hahah I muz say i made quite a few people excited over my typo haha sorry peeps .. got u excited for tt split second. Hmm.. back to work today. Had a little sore eye yesterday so i've decided to "stay" at home to rest. Oh... pai sei Meiling.. not tt i dun wan to meet u for dinner last night but my laziness got the better of me hah. What's new rite?? U shld noe me.. It does not only happen to u dears ok! I also do tt to guys! BUT... u have to read this but.. have to depend on which guy la LOL If my all-time crush were to call me, trust me, i'll fly down tt instance hahah pardon me for being so direct and unfair. Ho

On a Cold Rainy Morning ...

It's been sooo long since i last chat as in really sit down and chat for such a long time with my dearest sharon yu! Take care babe... eveything would be fine.. learn to relax yar? =) Hope we get to hang out really soon since u're such a busy bee. I wrote a christmas card for this guy in my office coz he's going back to his country tomorrow. I'm abit pai sei to give him haha think he's friend will laugh. He always wonder how this guy can talk to me when he has a problem communicating with people. i.e. shy (i guess). I'll c how things goes. Maybe I would just throw the card away la.. LOL I don't have a crush on him ppl. (this was what sharon thought when i said i was pai sei) Just tt i'm not close to ppl in my office even though they're nice and all and we had our fair share of laughter. Hmm.. I'm slacking once again. I've absolutely nothing to do at all!! Nothing! My boss is at home avoiding the rain and would only come in later. Damn shiok l

I've got promoted =)

Haha if only! The president went back to US so i'm currently sitting at his seat heh. I've been sitting on the hard wooden chair for so long, now when i place my butt on this cushion seat, i feel lk sleeping. I'm juz waiting for lunch right now. My email is not working.. i keep getting a msg saying tt there's no connection with my SMTP server. Watever is tt.. i'm too lazy to tell my boss. He seems to be busy typing away. So ya.. here I am slacking haha. Going for lunch with evan, bryan and nette later. The rich kid, evan goh drives a Mercedes-Benz, SLK 200!!! woohooo I've juz checked. With COE, his car cost $200,000. My dad's car cost 1/4 of tt amt. See how rich is he.. sigh .. i'm so envious LOL. He made me swear not to tell his secret hah. I've been using this against him ever since but of course in the name of fun. We all noe he's rich but still the car kindda shocked me. Don't worry evan, no SMU ppl have my blog url as of now yet. I do no

*Dilemma*

she up-ed my grade! hah She just up my grade without me even saying anything. She feels that since I came down, I deserve to have a better grade. Although my gpa would not be pull up much, i still feel better. I really do not deserve a B+. However, prof told us not to go ard spreading. So Evan and I have to keep this little secret to yourself. I feel bad lying to my other grp mates. When they asked if prof increased our grades, Evan and I just said "nope.. she's so strict". Sorry peeps. I'm bounded by my environment. I've to think for myself.. I know this sounds cruel. Second issue: I want to go for work and travel again. I want to go to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk! But my parents do not allow me. I know i've been for WAT before and it's all just in the name of fun. But i really had fun .. esp travelling. What's more, now i'll be going with friends. How?? shld i convince them or stop thinking of playing all the time? If i were to go, by the time i&#

Life is drawing without an eraser

This term's results are coming out one by one.. I'll be getting back the result for my last course tomorrow. Sigh... Din do very well this sem. So far i've only got 1 A-. Even though i'm grateful that i din get below a B, getting B+ now do not help me at all. My little little hope for getting a cum laude is gone. I'll still end up with a higher merit. there's nothing i can do now. All i wish now is to get a job. Please!!! dun let everything demoralise me! How i wish life is juz filled with happiness and joy all the time. Feeling a little demoralised now. MEL shouts: *I CAN DO IT!!!*

4th day at work...

Seems lk i'm counting down huh haha .. trust me. it isn't intentional. I've nothing to do now. I'm abit stuck on my proj and i'm lazy to work anyway. I've a slight headache, it's raining outside.. what more can i ask for then to be in my bed at this time. The thought of taking MC was lingering in my mind the whole morning. But i guess it isn't tt nice since it's only my first week. Just read sheryl's blog. She's flying off to US soon. Have fun babe! stop being so paranoid abt being on the plane. I simply can't understand it. I loveee sitting in planes. Tt's becoz i love the food on planes haha Such a pity i'm not lk a pretty babe with super good complexion. Otherwise i'll definately try out as a stewardess ahah (dun snigger at my comment. Everyone is free to dream k. Let me indulge once in a while) Hmm... wonder if i shld lunch with the guys today. One thing abt them, they eat at places tt are considered x to me. It's thos

3rd day at work...

Ok yesterday's lunch wasn't so bad.. at least i did not felt so awkward haha I guess it's becoz on the first day, my boss talks so much, I had nothing to say. When we had lunch without the boss, at least i'm free to talk abt anything. But.. I still feel bored without anyone talking to me at work! MSN is such great invention. Without it, i'll be bored to death..let alone tears. Like for now, I'm the only one in the office!!! Everyone is probably still on their way haha this's the first time i had to open the office door. It took me sometime to pull the key out after opening the door haha. Wonder what kind of work environment would I be in when i graduate.. I pray that it'll not be so lonely. P/s: I wonder y Chris nv told me tt i'll be working in a all male environment??? Not tt it'll make a diff in the first place but I thought it's the norm for people to voice it out during the interview or something lk tt. Guess ppl of different culture wor

At work

I din get into the next round of Shell's interview. Oh well.. i kindda expected it so i dun really feel so bad abt it. Just that i'm back to square one once again...still jobless. Anyway, today's my second day at internship. The atmosphere is kindda wierd. Even though i can do my own things, there's no one to talk to me here! There's only 4 ang mo guys and me! 1 pathetic chinese gals. Sigh.. i think i can't click with ang mos la hah (to think i even thought that having an ang mo bf is quite cool). Even going out for lunch with them makes me quite sian haha i dunno what to say lor and they're all so chatty anyway. So.. all i can say is, i've never been to a more quiet working place then this. Everyone is just staring at their laptops doing their own work. But i managed to peer at one guy's comp, hah he's chatting too. Alright back to work now.. wonder if they'll ask me to go for lunch with them later. For the first time, i actually prefer to g

Dental Appointment

Just had my teeth checked! Nothing much... did some filling. But as i was sitting at the chair, i thought of how people (first person tt came to my mind-Kenneth) fear the dentist sooo much. Well the sharp drilling sound sux, i know. Other then tt, i dun even feel any pain. However, i can't see myself being a dentist. Yucks! i've to look into ppl's mouth all the time. I feel grossed out for the dentist who have to put her head so close to my mouth. Poor thing.... then again, they get paid so much hah Hmm.. going out with jac later on... haven met her for quite some time. Since last hols. It's nice to catch up with friends once in a while. It surprises ppl how I can keep in contact with certain friends that seem so distant hah. Well tt's me for u....
Thanx Josh, I've received your post card from Germany. Yes yes as usual, i really wish i'm there and that I will find a chance to be there in future. Anyway, I've went through the interview. Crapped a whole lot. Cross my fingers and pray that i get in the second round. Ok here are some pics I took in malaysia. Enjoy!

Back from Malaysia Trip

Hey all, i'm back from Malaysia. The trip was good. The drive was a thrill hah. My dad had to go as fast as 140km/hr. Everyone was speeding lk crazy. Must say everyone's driving skills are so impressive. Shell juz called me!! I'll be having a phone interview from KL tomorrow. Hah! Excited and nervous. Ok will upload my pics later and read up on shell =) Must be in tip top condition tomorrow morning at 1030am for my interview. haha Wish me luck!

In fact the actul exam week for SMU starts next week. heh. Lucky me huh but i had a tight week. Projs, reports, exams.. I thought i wasn't nv going to make it. I'm glad everything's over though the paper was horrible. It was soo tough. I couldn't do a single calculation qn. I just guessed all the ans. Luckily it was a mcq and True/False paper. Anyway, i refuse to brood over it. I'll be worried and scared when the time comes. As for now... i'm going for my malaysia trip tomorrow! hah Haven packed my stuff..will do it later tonight. Ok here r some of the pics i took at my ex-collegue's, val's wedding dinner.. I better hurry! I'm going shopping later yeah! No exams days are GREAT!

I've dyed my hair!

It' s the time of the year where i feel lk wasting money again. Yes.. it's the exam period hah. Whenever it's near the exams, i would feel lk shopping etc. everything boils down to.. spending money BUT studying. Well.. so here it is. I've brown hair now. Thought the highlights were abit too bright. I'll probably take some pics at my friend's wedding dinner tomorrow night =) Okie dokie.. got to do my equity report and presentation slides. Last presentation for the sem on tues. Got to study for IB too! Paper on wed and prof said it'll be hard. Die...... I din do very well for the first test already. Better buck up!!! I'm in a Christmas mooood.....

New Friend

Yipeee i'm done with my investment banking presentation at last! I fear for this the most. Everyone in class seem so zai. It just sends shivers down my spine. But well.. i guess we did fine. This guy in class was quite impressed by us hah. He just asked for our msn coz he thinks we're good contacts. LOL hilarious.. i'm not as zai as i seem.. Must say my acting quite good then. Anyway, more on this guy. He's really quite different from others. He went to prison before. But who cares he's given a new life and he's studying in uni with us. Must say he's quite cool. He's been telling me abt the life he hopes to live and how he's looking forward to an exciting life. Remember ppl! the Yellow Ribbon program hah. Din really feel anything abt it previously other then knowing the fact that there's this program.

Around the world

I'm chatting with josh right now and he's making me soo jealous with his new year plans! Off to Germany on fri and for the new year, Florida and then taking a cruise to Haiti, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, and Mexico. WHAT THE!?!??! LOL See how fair our lives are hah. The only places i'm going is Malaysia. I'm off to malaysia next fri and i think it's like my only trip this dec hols. At the most i'll be going to malacca for another short trip.

Wedding bells are ringing

I've a wedding dinner to attend today =) bought my dress but have yet to get any accesorries to go with it. Might be going down to the mall to get something later. Hope i can find something nice and reasonably priced =) Will try to take some pics tonight! On a more serious note, I'm starting to get worried for my future. Ppl are getting called up for interviews but no news nor calls for me as of now. Well ppl tell me that i still have one more sem to graduation. Y worry now?? I just can't help it. Ppl around me who are graduating at the same time get calls and interviews while i dun. *cross my fingers* pray hard! real hard!

The count down

One presentation down! It was not bad. Prof said our presentation was quite well done. yeah! Now it's time for the report. Judging from the past years report, all grps had so many creative ways in presenting their report. We must not lose out! Well, we've decided on presenting it in a journal format and I've juz wrote the first entry for the journal hah. I got the idea from the Citibank MA recrutiment brochure. My group mates think the story i've written is great. *beam* this proj seems to be getting fun haha. ok this's only the beginning. There's more to go. Oh well at least things are not going as bad as they seem. Alright back to another presentation slide for next week. Wish me luck guys! =) Oh oh.. i managed to do some shopping today! went to holland v to cut my hair and decided to walk ard for a while before popping by my grandma's place and ... ta da... i found this small little shop selling so many nice dresses! i swear i tried more then 10 dresses.

Stressed out

Waiting for project meeting to start. I've 3 presentations next week. How bad can it get! They're all final projects and weigh at least 30% of my grades and you know what's the worst? We have not started! yeah u heard me right. We have not really started on it. I was in shock when my friend picked number 3. We're group 3 to present next week. Sheryl and I was still praying that we are not the ones to present next week. Sheryl was in tears haha i could literally see tears rolling down. As for me, i was in total shock. Lost for words. Sigh.. we have to pia(for people who dun understand, it means rush lk mad!) later on. As for now, Sheryl and I are just so bored of work, we're entertainng ourselves by reading other ppl's blog hah. Lost all blogs after i reformated my comp. Well i got them all back. Thanx to the 38 sheryl who enjoys reading stuff abt others heh. I can't believe dawn's eyes. they're huge! HUGE! i thought yuanling's eyes were big enuff

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween.. never been to a Halloween party before even though we've planning to go to one every year haha. The closest we ever get to going for a party was last year. but after all the talk on what costumes to wear, only 1 gal went in the end with her friends hah. Did not realise time has past so fast. The last i heard, tt girl was an Egyptian gypsy this year. I feel mean for having the thought that i do not want to go to tt gal's birthday celebration. Apparently this is the first time the entire group can make it but me! 10 people k.. everyone can make it. we were all surprised haha. Well tt gal wanted to cancel the date coz i can't go! wah liao.. i was lk "NO!" as i said, i dunno wat she did to deserve me not liking her. It's juz somethings she does once in a while la. BUT i dun hate her! Anyway it's not tt i dun wan to go, i just realised i had to attend a wedding dinner next fri! hah. It's fated. Not my fault. Well i'm thinking i'll

addiction!

I'm hooked on to youtube again! This time it's a korean show, not taiwanese. I'm hooked on to the show princess hours. I said to myself to only watch at most 2 episode each time. It was going well until now... each episode always end so abruptly. I can't help but think of what would happen next. Arghhh.. this's bad. I think i should just finish watching all at one shot then i would not think abt it anymore...but i feel guilty. haha *Dilemma dilemma* My smu friends are planning a gathering again for all the november babies. I'm the only one who have not replied to the email. This few weeks is gonna be crazy. There's a million assignments, projects and 2 final exams. I really wonder if i can make it. If i do not go, my friend's going think i'm a spoilt spot. But seriously.. deep down, i dun feel lk going. Dun really like one of the gal *tsk tsk* Don't really know why she deserve such feelings from me. I still act cool around her, being nice and all
Mid terms are over at last. Nonetheless, there's only 3 more weeks before the finals. Between now til the finals, it'll be projects and more projects!
